Buddleja x weyeriana ‘Golden Glow’ (Golden Butterfly Bush), rocking the sunlight and clear skies to be today’s #oneadayplant . The species x weyeriana is a cross between B. globosa (giving the Yellow balls) and B. davidii (giving the cumulative spikes of flower). . This variety has been around since the First World War and is a UK raised bi-species hybrid and cultivar. Still, surprisingly not very commonly planted. I think the x weyeriana cultivars are better than globosa for gardens as they flower more freely and the foliage is less oppressive than globosa. Most commonly seen is B. x weyeriana ‘Sungold’, which is 1960’s Dutch raised cultivar and a good thing. . A big shrub that insects like a lot. Well worth affording the space to in your garden or planting scheme. . #buddleja #butterflybush #buddlejadavidii #buddlejaglobosa #buddlejaxweyeriana #buddlejaxweyerianagoldenglow #plants #shrubs #pollinators #bees #butterflies #sun #orange #golden #yellow #iplantsman #gardening #sky #sun #summer #bluesky #semievergreen #pollinatorgarden #plantingdesign #gardeningadvice #gardeningtips (at Crowborough, East Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDn9V6Yg-23/?igshid=1plwtsbsr3ziv
